Got into computers when I learned BASIC when I was 14. That was back in the dark ages around 1973. Yes, there were computers back then. I graduated with a BSEE in 1982 and kept learning.

Um, Hello. So I was doom scrolling through a news feed and came across a question: "What is your favorite Linux distro and why"? Since I am a Linux user, and bored, I decided to respond. In the process I seem to have created a Dev user account. Um, So, here I am. I think I'll stick around and see if i can learn something.

Actually, if I had to pick a favorite it would be Ubuntu in some form or another, for the same usability factor. I rock Manjaro on my workstations but mainly for hardware compatibility.
Welcome! I love the term "doom scrolling" by the way. The first time I heard it, I felt that it quite accurately described not only what I was doing, but also how I felt.

Hi Gordon!
So what is your favorite distro any why?
Xubuntu. Because it's what I use and it passed the Wife and Kids test. Probably not what you were expecting to hear.

Thanks for sharing!
Hello Gordon.
I believe that as a linux user, you never stop learning. And the best way to lear is to teach.
